Exam marks question

[jayleno]

Questions:

- How many marks can I lose in the psych exam in order to achieve an A?
- How many marks can you lose in the Busman exam to score an A+?
- How many marks can you lose in both further exams to get an A?

Thanks guys

Based on last year's GA stats:
- Maximum 27 marks lost for pysch (113/140)
- Maximum 20 marks lost in BusMan for an A+ (47/65)*

For Further:
- Maximum 5 marks lost for an A in exam 1 (35/40)
- Maximum 11 marks lost for an A in exam 2 (49/60)

These numbers tend to vary a bit from year to year though so realistically you want to be aiming a bit higher than that.

*This one seems a bit sketchy, might've messed something up. I don't do BusMan so I can't confirm

Thanks MightyBeh I thought to get an A  you can only afford to lose 1 or 2 marks

That's for an A+ in Further, it's very competitive. I would've thought BusMan and Psych are the same, but I grabbed the numbers from the vcaa website so I'm pretty sure they're correct. Keep in mind they're the very maximum number of marks you can lose and you should be aiming higher than that to be confident.
